    Florian Thauvin has snubbed the chance to move to Arsenal by agreeing terms with Lille.

    A £3.5m transfer has been agreed by Lille and the midfielder's current side Bastia and the move is expected to be announced shortly.

    Arsenal were keen on the Frenchman but he had reservations about moving to England.

    The 20-year-old wants to stay in France for now and Lille have beaten the Gunners to sign the promising star.
